Good story - so-so reader

The story as always was good, though it seems that Bishop and Terri are super human, close calls every other chapter yet they always survive.

The reader is ok, amazing compared to the previous episode. However, he should never, ever attempt an accent again, they were painful to hear. And every conversation or comment doesn't end in an exclamation point. The cadence and tone in the character speaking is always exactly the same, and the women especially have a sort of chiding note that gets grating.

Dialogue

Not Mr. Nobody's strong suit. Again the voice characterization by the narrator leaves much to be desired. But if you are this far into the series, you must have become tolerant of such performances and become engaged with the somewhat two dimensional characters. I want Mr. Nobody to finish the story.

Good Story

Highly enjoyable story. Good narration, though the voice is so strong he has a difficult time with feminine characterizations. The random sound effects in these later books is distracting and unnecessary. Also, it seems every book has a different narrator. some are quite good. Others would be better suited to a career as a mime.

Bishop better check six, Terri is becoming the real power center.

All said, read and enjoy. It's thrilling and laced with highs and lows that will keep you looking for a quiet spot to listen. I suggest a long, solo drive.

This book delivers great new twist

By book 8 its sometimes heard to keep up the excitement, as the characters are getting closer to rebuilding. Joe nobody however, does it with the great skill. Taking the story to new locations, introducing new characters, and even more challenging situations.

I'm very happy the narrator has gone back to the previous books, yes people find the chimes annoying. I appreciate the definitive jump to a new character p.o.v. Or new location.

Another Amazing story.

It is a bittersweet addition to this saga. The loss of endearing characters, and the rebuilding of society, earmarks the end of toe to toe fighting against evil groups and bands of outlaws. Guess I'll just start over from the beginnjng.
